Standard Tuning
Intro:
CECEm
Verse:
CEm
My TV's staring at me
CEm
It says 'go to sleep, go to sleep'
CEm
Turns me into a Siamese twin
C
Where do I start
Em
The TV screen begins
CEm
Plugs me into some holy geek
CEm
His point in life is incomplete
CEmCEm
My TV is telling me that only money will make me happy
Pre-Chorus:
CEmFm
Hold the course and then sail
CEmFm
Hold the course and then sail
Chorus:
C
Across the satellite beams
Em
Across the oceans and seas
AmF
To the lighthouse I could be
C
I see some soldiers with guns
Em
And they are killing for fun
AmF
They are killing to entertain me
Verse:
CEm
Caught between that world and this
CEm
I'd sell my soul for a Bond girl's kiss
CEm
Caught between that world and this
CEm
I'd sell my soul for a state of bliss
CEmCEm
My TV's telling me that all our money goes into the military
Pre-Chorus:
CEmFm
Hold the course and then sail
CEmFm
Hold the course and then sail
Chorus:
C
Across the satellite beams
G
Across the oceans or seas
AmF
to the lighthouse I could be
C
I see some soldiers with guns
G
And they are killing for fun
AmF
They were dying to entertain me
C
And then I heard your name
G
As the spaceman came
AmF
He came right through my screen
C
And then his lifeline broke
G
He began to choke
AmF
Jump cut to another scene
CGAmF
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
CGAmF
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
CGAmF
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
CGAmF
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
